About Us

Strategic innovation in health care for today and tomorrow.

At Cerner, we're continuously building on our foundation of intelligent solutions for the health care industry. Our technologies connect people and systems at more than 27,500 contracted provider facilities worldwide, and our wide range of services support the clinical, financial and operational needs of organizations of every size.

Together with our clients, we are creating a future where the health care system works to improve the well-being of individuals and communities. By designing leading-edge health information technology, we offer strategies that empower organizations to know, manage and engage their populations. Our applications are developed with physicians in mind so they can focus on people, not technology. And providers can manage their day-to-day revenue functions with our integrated clinical and financial systems. These helpful tools are designed to work for today and think for tomorrow.

From the beginning, we have innovated at the intersection of health care and information technology. Our mission remains to contribute to the systemic improvement of health care delivery and the health of communities.
